The Green Bay Packers are 3-2, but things are not going well with Romeo Doubs.
Last week, the team went on the road and beat the Los Angeles Rams 24-19.
Despite securing the victory, there was some drama surrounding wide receiver Romeo Doubs, who skipped two practices last week after he was reportedly unhappy with his role in the offense.
As a result of his behavior, the team suspended him for Week 5, but he returned to the practice field this week.
Ths week, reporters finally asked Doubs what is going on with him and he sounded like a man who was down.
Romeo Doubs says he addressed his teammates among returning this week. The #Packers receiver explains why he skipped practice before LA.

When asked specifically about his role in the Packers’ offense, Romeo Doubs declined to comment as he praised the unit.
Doubs practiced all three days this week and is expected to play Sunday vs. the Cardinals at Lambeau Field, Head Coach Matt LaFleur confirmed.
He further added, “I absolutely wish I would’ve handled things differently.” When asked what, he said being “a better communicator.”
When asked if he addressed his teammates, Doubs said, “I did,” but he did not want to get too deep into the matter.
Prayers were sent his way by fans:
He has mental health problems but the people of social media are disgusting and came at his character.
